Hi, usually the hang like your problems comes from installed applications. However, if you have already hard reset or reformat (not just reset), then it should clean all applications that could make your Sony Xperia ZR become trouble. Please do reformat again, but after finish, please do not sign-in to any Google account. Because usually the Google account will make cloud backup, and it will automatically restore after you factory reset and sign in with the same account.
